Using a 360-degree camera mounted helmet with a bicycle

Before, I made a 360-degree camera mounted helmet. After that, I took some Street View with the helmet, and I was able to confirm the stability and the usability.

And this time, I tried to take a Street View on a bicycle with the helmet.

The view from a bicycle

Like this, the bicycle did not stand out. And I ride on the unpaved road for checking the stability, but it also no problem. Of course, the blue line was created automatically.

Issues

Video mode is very useful but currently, its performance is not perfect yet. When you use this, you will find a lot of problems. I took Street Views on open places for receiving exactly location from GPS but the location, the route, and the direction were not correct.
However, don’t give it up soon. One of our roles is giving feedback. Our feedbacks should be also helping to develop the Street View App. Let’s wait for improvement together.

Option

I tried this too. It was so nervous at the first time but I was surprised at the range.

When you want to do it as well, these articles may support you. Please check them out!

The next is your turn. What will you do, Sky, Sea, or another something?

Hi, @sonnyNg! This is a sample of making a Street View on a bicycle:-)

Thanks for sharing Hiro san.

Is there a particular helmet to use? Also, what tripod do you use for the car?

Hi, @BTan

That helmet is not sold. so you need to make that yourself like this.
About my car, I bought a sucker for mounting a camera. But my way is not perfect yet. Please check links out:-)

@HiroyukiTakisawa さんは、何をやっても「サマに」なってますね。バッチリ決まってるじゃないですか。羨ましい。トップ画見てて思いました。「竹野内豊」に似てるなぁ。

@user_not_found さん、ありがとうございます。

そんなん初めて言われましたわ。多分ひげ効果なのでみんなひげはやせばいいんです。

でも実態は謎のヘルメットを被って奇異の目で見られながら畦道爆走してるおじさんですので現実は無情ですね。

Your thoroughness is really impressive, @HiroyukiTakisawa!

Thank you for tagging me in the really handy post, I really appreciate that you have tried out my suggestion.

I find your way of stretching the camera to the limits really interesting, as that would share my philosophy of usage of any equipment.

Thank you for sharing. Will try it out. India is very bad with Streetview, mostly unavailable due to lack of permissions. Will try to upload my town.

Luar biasa, semoga saya juga dapat mempunyai yang seperti anda punya
